This study investigates the integrity of cartilage in the lateral and patello-femoral compartments of varus knees. The integrity of this cartilage is a key factor in the surgical decision to proceed with either uni-condylar or total knee replacement. X-rays, MRIs and biomechanical testing will be used to determine which parameters best predict ultimate cartilage integrity.

If you want a wonderful caring and attentive skilled orthopedic surgeon you can’t do better than Dr. Craig DuShey, a partner at Manhattan Orthopedic and Sports Medicine practice. He takes plenty of time to answer all your questions and is very gentle when giving injections. And his skill as a surgeon is impeccable.
